Living like Jesus at home

S: 12So, as those who have been chosen of God, holy and beloved, put on a heart of compassion, kindness, humility, gentleness and patience

13 bearing with one another, and forgiving each other, whoever has a complaint against anyone; just as the Lord forgave you, so also should you.

14 Beyond all these things put on love, which is the perfect bond of unity.
Colossians 3:12-14 (NASB)

O: This scripture does not say to put on these things when you leave home in the morning, and take them off when you get back home. We are to live like Christ(be Christians) 100 percent of the time.

A: Most people can be kind to others outside of their home, but how you live everyday at home shows your true character.

P: Lord, let others see you in me in all my dealings, but most of all my spouse and children. Let those of my household be the first to say that the Fruit of the Spirit
is evident in my life. Let me be kind, compassionate, gentle, humble, understanding,
patient, and filled with joy.
